Merchant Shipping (Pollution) Bill [Lords]

There is considerable work to be done on port capacity and on facilities for trans-shipping using in-shore waterways to provide a greener form of transport for many of the goods that are brought into this country. We will shortly launch a ports policy review that will look at exactly those issues and at how we can plan appropriately for port capacity of all types.
